Users of JWt need not worry. While there’s no JWt 4 yet, this does not mean we’re abandoning JWt. Most changes in Wt 4 are very specific to C++. We will work on updating our Wt to JWt porting toolchain after the release of Wt 4 so that JWt can stay in sync with Wt.

Great. Thanks for your efforts.Do you have any information when the final version will be available?

How can we use 4.x, if we have licensed 3.x?

While things are usually ready when they are ready, I think it's safe to expect the final 4.0 before the end of the summer.

The license does not make a distinction between Wt 3 or Wt 4, so you can use all Wt releases released during the Maintenance Period of your license, or any extensions thereof.

Any chance we see a .NET version, based on a source-to-source translator similar to that of JWt?

We have discussed this regularly here at emweb. I came to the conclusion that .NET web developers are more likely to stick to the MS frameworks rather than to use a 3rd party framework for their web developments, and that as such it would be very hard to get some popularity. Would you agree?

We use JWt intensively for projects here at emweb.

Technically I think it's feasible. Any chance you'd sponsor such a development? ;-)

.NET + Angular is becoming the most popular way to develop webapps. .NET is used for the backend, Angular for the front-end. In my experience as a project manager, the Angular part ends up being slow and expensive to develop. If Wt.NET is as easy as regular Wt, then you have a market.

Unfortunately, my company does not invest in such research projects unless we do it internally. The fact that the C++-to-Java source-to-source translator is not available does not help either :-(

Your request is noted. If we see this request a lot, Wt.NET may happen... Please understand that this must be economically senisble for us, since creating, documenting and maintaining such a port is not a small task.
